During the initial SYSINSTALL setup of Xfree86 on my Sony VAIO PCG-FRV27 laptop under FreeBSD 4.9, the setup goes through the configuration menus, then says it failed and do I want to try again. I exited SYSINSTALL and ran the config option on XFree86, finding out that the generated log shows that its erroring out on the Monitor/Video Card initialization. I can't find a monitor in the database that matches my ATI Radion IGP345M PCI monitor, and none of the display settings specifically match my 800/600 60 hz + 1028/768 60 hz setting. One display setting had 800/600 76 hz + 1028/768 60 hz setting, and that was the closest one so I tried it. I also tried VGA as the monitor, but it stilled failed. What monitor, card and display settings should use?
